I dont need another rifle. BUT, I kind of like these rather ugly if not unrefined looking rifles. Its not like a enfield or mauser. My dad bought both a enfield and a mauser (wish he bought a springfield also) for next to nothing when they were all over the market place. I think that the Mosin is in that same position now. Anyway I would like to grab one that is less comin (far a mosin) and truth be told I know almost nothing about these rifles other than they are russian bolt action.
Does someone have a link to a sight that lays them all out with the diference between them? What should I be looking for and how do I ID it? Other than a tight bolt and clean bore what are problem areas to look at? What kind of accuracy can I expect at 100yds, from the rifle not me?
